We Just Can't Wait

We never intended to save the top tier of our wedding cake. We had decided if we wanted cake on our one-year anniversary, we would go back to the bakery and get a new cake. We didn't think we had ordered THAT much cake, but somehow we wound up with the top tier of both the wedding cake AND the groom's cake after the reception.

Well, we thought while snacking on the groom's cake topper, we'll freeze (what's left of) them before our honeymoon and do the traditional thing and eat them on our anniversary. But in the days before the honeymoon, we couldn't get those delicious cakes out of our heads. One year was too far away!  We agreed instead to pick one for celebrating one month of marriage, and the second for six months.

Pardon the messy stovetop. We're still unpacking and getting organized!

Yeahhh ... we had both of those toppers devoured within a week of getting back from our honeymoon.

I promise it looked fancier at the wedding. Here it was smushed and at a weird angle, and half-eaten of course.

They were calling us! And now that they're gone, Mr. Hyena and I keep asking each other, "So there's more cake, right?"

Unfortunately no. But we are for sure going back to get our one-year anniversary cake!

Are you planning to save your top tier(s)? Or, if you're already married, did you manage to save your cake for a whole year?
